Two-Day Course
Comments

"I am a new ER nurse and this class has given me another view of ER/triage. I have a desire to learn more and stay longer."

"Great job!! I left with some great ideas and information to make our ED/Triage better. I was amazed by the things we can improve and what we are doing incorrectly."

"I appreciated that we were taught by an ER RN. It is refreshing to have someone that can relate to what we face."

"I would absolutely recommend this program to other nursing professionals."

"Everything covered was nurse-driven – this class is for nurses, by nurses."

"Two-day course is real world knowledge – now I can't wait to go to the Triage Specialist Course."
